Blackburn Rovers midfielder David Bentley insists there was no lingering fallout from Christopher Samba's blow-up with David Dunn during their defeat to West Ham.

Dean Ashton's goal led to Dunn turning on Samba, their ugly confrontation carrying on into the dressing room at the interval.

England winger Bentley said: "I was the peacemaker, but sometimes you have to be told.

"Nothing can be personal - you win and lose as a team. There was a little bit in the dressing room, but it's all constructive. It did all kick off - but that is part of football."
